GROUP PIANO, PERCUSSION & GLEE CLUB
Explore the world of music by joining a Move Over Mozart music course! We’ve been guiding students on their musical journey for 36 years. The combination of group learning and one-on-one instruction has shown to be ideal for students to immerse themselves in the musical experience; students learn at their own pace, while also interacting with their peers. Our piano, percussion and glee club will help students develop critical listening skills, take part in individual and ensemble performance, and engage with music theory through musical games and activities.
